Just a few more months? That is exactly what I was asking for, put some of the stuff into 7.6 so it will be released in a few more months instead of holding back the release now.

If we really released major versions every 4-6 months, what about the last stable version? If only the current and the last version are supported, this would mean that security/bugfixes are available only to versions no older than 8 months or so, or said the other way around if I need a bug fixed stable version I'll have to upgrade to the next major version after quite a short time. We'd have to support 2-3 versions older than the current release to cover one year major version stability, which appears not viable for the community.


Seems we're stuck in the present way, being probably the best that can be made with limited resources.
